There were a total of 5 people that offered votes on this. There were a total of 4 +1's and 1 -1. Given the dissolution of the OGB, I suggest that all votes count regardless of Core Contributor status for the owning community group, whatever that is. The -1 raised the following objections: - Indiana may not be dead yet and it is best to keep the list around just in case. - Alan Coopersmith had interesting posts recently - The moderation work can be done by someone else. The discussion that followed offered the following counterpoints: - Indiana is a completed project that became known as OpenSolaris, the distribution[1][2][3]. - The list can be revived in the event that circumstances change[4]. - Alan believes his interesting posts relevant to the list are done[2]. - While I offered for others to pick up moderation[5][6], no one has volunteered. 1. http://mail.opensolaris.org/pipermail/indiana-discuss/2010-August/018061.html 2. http://mail.opensolaris.org/pipermail/indiana-discuss/2010-August/018062.html 3. http://mail.opensolaris.org/pipermail/indiana-discuss/2010-August/018063.html 4. http://mail.opensolaris.org/pipermail/indiana-discuss/2010-August/018064.html 5. http://mail.opensolaris.org/pipermail/indiana-discuss/2010-August/018054.html 6. http://mail.opensolaris.org/pipermail/indiana-discuss/2010-August/018060.html A discussion period of five days was allowed and the discussion has been quiet for three days. Even though there is one detractor, I believe that consensus was reached that indiana-discuss should be retired. Web site admins: Please retire indiana-discuss while preserving the archives. So long, Indiana! For those looking for a community driven Indiana-esque distro, it sounds like Alasdair Lumsden has something in the cooker. Keep an eye on opensolaris-discuss and http://www.illumos.org for updates. http://mail.opensolaris.org/pipermail/opensolaris-discuss/2010-August/059680.html -- Mike Gerdts http://mgerdts.blogspot.com/ _______________________________________________ website-discuss mailing list website-discuss@opensolaris.org
